Not impressed
I’m sorry to report that, after a couple hours of A/B testing, this application made zero difference in the quality of sound coming from a mid-range audio set up (including 2012 retina MBP 15” with Mavericks, Pioneer Elite SC-79, Sonus Faber Venere 3.0 speakers). I could not hear any discernible difference in Apple AAC files, Apple Lossless files ripped from CDs, nor from 24-bit high-def ALAC files downloaded from HD Tracks. The Pioneer’s SABRE DAC recognized the application, so I had it running in integer mode.
Not sure what “profound sonic difference” people are hearing, but it was non-existent on my set-up. Your mileage may vary.
Also, the application appears to interfere with the keyboard controls for volume. So, net-net, this is a loss of $10 for me.
